A Snapchat video of missing teen Jay Slater before he disappeared in Tenerife shows what he was wearing.

The search for 19-year-old Jay Slater continues, after he went missing on Monday in Tenerife after travelling to attend a music festival.

The British teen had been on the Canary Island with friends, before he parted ways with them and stayed out with a new group of people.

He then returned to their apartment in a more rural and mountainous part of the island.

After leaving the apartment at around 8am the next day, he phoned his friend Lucy at 8.50am to say he was lost in the ‘middle of nowhere’, had 1% phone battery and needed a drink of water.

That was the last anyone has heard from Jay.

Lucy said he was walking back to his accommodation on the south side of the island from a house he'd stayed at on the Sunday night.

But the walk, according to maps, says it would have taken him 10 hours.

A Snapchat video of Jay before he went missing has been released, showing what he was wearing at the time.

He is seen in a grey t-shirt with green stripes on the shoulders and is carrying a black bag. It's likely this is what he was wearing when he went missing the next morning.

Jay’s mum Debbie and his brother Zak have since flown out to Tenerife to help in the search for him.

Jay's last known location was the National Park of Teno, a popular hiking spot in Tenerife.

Speaking to the Manchester Evening News, Debbie said: “I’m obviously beside myself with worry which is why I’ve flown out here with my eldest son to do anything we can to help.

“We’re just praying the police or someone finds Jay. I know there’s a mountain rescue team out and a helicopter.

“Nothing’s ever going to be enough when your youngest son’s gone missing but it sounds as if the police here are taking this very seriously and doing the best job they can.”

Jay's parents were told the terrible news that their son was missing at 2:30am on the Tuesday (18 June) morning, with his stepfather Andy saying that police knocked on their door and told them 'the best thing you can do is get yourself out there'.

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office have said: “We are supporting the family of a British man who has been reported missing in Spain and are in contact with the local authorities.”
